Sean. They had named him Sean.

"Its a strong name", Buffy had told him after giving birth, "It's perfect."

Buffy was still laying asleep in her hospital bed. Seeing his baby in an incubator... Angel couldn't do anything for their child. How could he have known Buffy would go into premature labor? How could he have known that his child was in danger?

"But everything's going to be okay, right?! My baby is going to be okay, right!?" Buffy had asked the nurses in tears.

"Angel?" She asked, voice scratchy from just waking up.

"Love, you're awake. Sean is..." Angel tried to form words.

"I know. Let's go see him." Buffy replied without letting him finish.

They had the nurses take them to their baby boy. All the other incubators were decorated by loving mothers and fathers... Sean's was bare.

"We'll have to decorate... Sean looks so out of place." Buffy said.

"Yes. We'll decorate." Angel replied giving a happy smile. *It'll be okay. My baby will be okay.*

The nurse told them they could put there hands inside using the special gloves... the baby wasn't ready to be taken out yet.

"He's so tiny. He's so beautiful." Buffy said as her and Angel put one hand each in.

"He's amazing," Angel told her, adding, "I love you Sean."

"Hi Sean," Buffy took Angel's lead, "I was dreaming about you.... for a long time."

Suddenly Buffy began singing. She sang with an intense watch over Sean.... she sang to him. She sang with tears in her eyes...

--Blackbird singing in the dead of night

Take these broken wings and learn to fly...

All your life, you were only waiting for this moment to arise---

Then, turning to Angel, she repeated in her most angelic wonderful voice. Gazing in his eyes she sang for him, "You were only waiting for this moment to arise."

centerThe End
